Chapter 36 – Party
In the face of many reporters' questions, Larry remained calm. After that, he opened his mouth with a smile painted on his red lips.
"I will answer your questions briefly, and introduce my name is Larry Alexander. I am the new CEO at Word Entertainment. I invited Jenifer because I am good at recognizing someone's talent. I saw an extraordinary talent from her". Larry paused for a moment as he glanced at Jenifer who had been silent all this time with a tense expression.
"Then that's all I want to say, and this press conference is over!"
After saying that, Larry left the reporters with Jennifer.
The reporters were just stunned to see Larry and Jennifer just leave, for them this was the shortest press conference.
At the same time, SM Entertainment began to fuss over the conference.
SM Entertainment bosses lost their cool because they felt that Word Entertainment had stolen their artist and the other artists looked enviously at Jenifer.
Actually, those who don't believe in Jennifer and break the contract. But, suddenly the person they chased out entered the golden cage. It makes them disapproving and envious.
The night shone at Mention Castle, in an instant Larry's house was decorated with lavish party decorations held in the garden behind his house. The garden looks spacious and the swimming pool decorated with candles and lotus flowers is very beautiful.
It looks like the guests have started to arrive and the girls are wearing their best clothes.
And in a certain corner, the host began to feel uneasy because his special guest had yet to be seen. Therefore he came to his house but there was only Zian.
Larry immediately made a call to Michael's number.
"Hello, where are you?" Larry asked after he heard Michael's breath on the other end of the phone.
"Office". Michael replied.
"Gosh… The polar bear is still in the office, didn't I tell him he's my special guest?". Larry thought angrily.
"Aren't you going to come to my party?"
"Not". Michael replied.
"But". Before Larry could continue his words, suddenly Sophia and Jennifer appeared in front of him.
Instantly Larry was stunned to see Sophia who was wearing a pink dress. Meanwhile, Jenifer looks elegant and charming behind a knee-length white dress, with long black hair flowing.
"Good evening boss! We've come". Jennifer said while painting a smile on the corner of her red lips that made Larry lose his composure and feel awkward.
"Good evening Mr. Larry!". Sophia also gave a slight smile when greeting Larry.
"Welcome Miss Jennifer and Miss Sophia! Please come in! Sorry I have to continue my conversation first!". Larry said as he let them in first.
Sophia and Jennifer immediately nodded after that they went straight in to be greeted by the waiters.
On the other side of the phone was a heart pounding at the sound of Sophia's voice.
"Hello… So…"
Tut tut tut….
"What? He just turned it off? Even though I haven't told him that my ex-sister-in-law is also coming". Larry was very upset that Michael had hung up on him unilaterally when he hadn't finished speaking.
After that, Larry entered the house and joined all the guests.
The night was getting late and the party was going well, but Sophia was starting to feel uncomfortable because she felt that this party didn't suit her.
"Good evening, Sophia!". Olivia said while holding her drink glass. The girl looks elegant with her manager, Luna, because the previous one was not allowed to enter Word Entertainment.
Sophia took a deep breath because she knew very well that Olivia would only look for trouble with her.
"Shopia… Are you mute?". Olivia asked sarcastically.
"What is it?". asked Sophia lazily.
It so happened that Sophia was alone because Jenifer was going to the toilet, so Olivia used the opportunity to bully Sophia.
"It's nothing, it's just that I wanted to let you know that you're in the wrong place. Because this party is only for the rich and artists, Word Entertainment actors. So, I suggest you to quickly leave this place because Our eyes sting to see the poor at a party as lavish as this." Olivia replied with a sly smile.
Jennifer who just came back from the toilet heard what Olivia said, she immediately walked towards her then she accidentally nudged Olivia's hand, instantly her drink spilled and hit Luna's beautiful dress.
"Oops… Sorry accidentally!". Jennifer said with a mocking smile.
"You… ". Luna growled then glared at Jenifer.
Larry from a distance saw the debate, she immediately approached them because she was worried that there would be a commotion at the party.
"Jenifer… You have no right to bring your friend to this party because it's a special party for W Entertainment people. So please bring your friend home immediately because she doesn't belong here. And you've also committed the crime of deliberately knocking my hand so that my glass fall". Olivia said in a rising voice.
"Shopia is my guest!". Larry said while sticking his hand out to Sophia with a smile. "Shopia, please follow me! Because I have prepared a special seat for you!". Larry said again.
With a little hesitation, Sophia followed Larry because she didn't want to argue with Olivia. Meanwhile, Jennifer followed behind them smiling because she was satisfied to see Olivia's ugly expression.
"Somehow I feel that the boss likes Sophia". Jennifer's mind began to suspect Larry. She also related to Larry's attitude when Larry asked Sophia to sign the contract.
Olivia, who witnessed it, felt like it was burning, there was a ball of fire in her eyes that was ready to burn the person she hated so much.
"Damn it, those two girls managed to embarrass me in front of Boss!". Olivia thought as she clenched her fists.
Meanwhile, Larry invited Sophia and Jenifer to sit at the table he had prepared, precisely near a small stage filled with musical instruments such as violins and pianos.
"Hahahaha… Brother, I've saved my former sister-in-law. So, you should treat me well". Larry thought.
It was time for Larry to show his best at playing the violin, all eyes were mesmerized and the hearts of the girls melted.
After he finished playing the violin, he took the mic and gave a few words as the host.
"Thank you all friends for coming officially. I'm Larry Alexander introducing myself as the new CEO of W Entertainment, I hope we can work well together!". Larry said while showing his seductive smile.
Just then, Larry received a message and he immediately opened the message, after reading it he immediately smiled even wider and made another announcement.
"Tonight besides my performance, there is also a special appearance from my honored guest, he will contribute a song that he says is dedicated to someone he loves the most!".
All the guests immediately clapped and couldn't wait to see the special guest that Larry was referring to.
Not long after, they all focused on a man whose presence was not only dazzling but looked dashing and strong, with a pair of long legs, a black suit, and a luxurious vest and hairstyle like a Korean artist, his eyes were dark and sparkling, but his expression was like an ice king.
He sat in front of the piano and his two long fingers were ready to dance on the piano. Once again all the girls were made hysterical even crazier than before. Because the crowd blocked Sophia's view from the stage so she didn't know who the guest Larry was referring to.
Therefore, Sophia was getting bored and then begged Jenifer to be allowed to go home first because she was already very uncomfortable, besides that she was sure that Jenifer would be fine. The night is getting late and the air is getting colder.
"Jenifer… I'll be waiting in the car!". Sophia said with a complicated expression. Jennifer took a deep breath and couldn't hold back the already very uncomfortable Sophia.
"Okay, wait for me in the car, and don't go anywhere! I'll catch up with you soon!".
"Okay.". After that, Sophia got up from her seat, but her steps stopped after she took a few steps when she heard the sound of the piano playing and the song was so familiar to her ears.
"That voice…?" Sophie thought as she clenched her fists as trembled slightly.
This song is the only song she remembers with Michael, the longer she heard it, her heart began to become uncertain.
